Calling the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group would hurt all American Muslims (WAAH ALERT)
Washington Compost ^ | 2/9/17 | Arjun Singh Sethi

Posted on 02/10/2017 6:34:30 PM PST by markomalley

President Trump may be ready to intensify his antagonism of Muslims. Reports suggest that the White House is considering an executive order directing the State Department to assess whether the Muslim Brotherhood should be designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization. Some Republicans, including Trump’s erstwhile rival Sen. Ted Cruz (Tex.), have been pushing for this for a long time, and it will have ramifications far beyond the Middle East, where the group primarily operates. The result is likely to be intimidation, harassment and smears of Muslim and Arab groups here in the United States.

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928 and sought to instill Islamic values into everyday life. It later evolved into a popular social and political organization and became Egypt’s leading opposition party. It has since inspired similar movements in countries such as Indonesia, Turkey, Jordan and Morocco. The Brotherhood disavowed violence long ago, and noted scholars have emphasized that it has fostered democratization and moderation in the Middle East. Two previous U.S. administrations concluded that it does not engage in terrorism, as did a recent report by the British government.

Despite this overwhelming evidence, some have suggested that the Brotherhood is waging a civilizational jihad and intends to destroy the West with the support of civic and political organizations in the United States. These are unfounded conspiracy theories, though: The Brotherhood doesn’t have a known presence in the U.S., most Muslim Americans know very little about it and no organization active in the U.S. has been shown to have any connection to it.

Every aspect of islam is militarized. Mosques are field offices, CAIR is their legal strong arming branch, MB is their recruitment and deep cover espionage department, and their apologists and propaganda people are disguised as ‘outreach’ and ‘humanitarian’ groups. All of this is focused on one goal ... to placate the infidel lamb long enough to gently walk it to the place of slaughter, as our media, celebrities, schools, politicians, and churches gladly help.

Islam is a war plan.

Anyone following islam is a terror threat. islam is terror in its definition. Follow islam or die? WTF?

islam MUST be eliminated even if it takes gene therapy to identify it and eliminate it. islam must be destroyed or humanity will suffer.

Never ingest any food or drink prepared by or touched by a muslim.

Here are a few examples of why that is a wise policy.

Man Arrested For Sprinkling Fecal Matter On Pastries

A Dallas cab driver is in big trouble for getting caught on tape sprinkling dried feces on pastries.

"Behrouz Nahidmobarekeh, 49, a devout muslim ,is on trial for allegedly throwing the feces on pastries at a Fiesta grocery store. Police said that during an investigation, they found a pile of human feces by his bed. Investigators believe Nahidmobarekeh would dry the feces, either by microwave or just letting it sit out, grate it up with a cheese grater and then sprinkle it at the store. A young boy, maybe 3 years old, was later seen on the surveillance tape, eating one of the defiled cookies.

There were consistent complaints about foul smelling cookies and cakes which led to investigations and apprehension of the muslim pastry Chef."

DHS Uncovers Islamic Plot to Poison Food in U.S. Hotels and Restaurants

"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has discovered a "plot to poison food in U.S. hotels and restaurants, CBS News reports.

The plot, uncovered earlier this year, involved the simultaneous poisoning of food served in hotels and restaurants across the U.S. over a single weekend. Two different poisons, ricin and cyanide, would be slipped into salad bars and buffets.

According to CBS, a "key intelligence source" confirmed that the threat was "credible." So credible, in fact, that the DHS, Department of Agriculture and the FDA briefed key security officers in the hotel and restaurant industries about the attack.

Officials believe that those behind the plot may be tied to the Yemeni-based al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). In October, AQAP attempted a cargo bombing scheme, in which explosives were placed in two packages shipped to Chicago addresses."

Philly Muslim Ice Cream Truck Driver Had Urine Popsicles to Sell

"Was Muslim ice cream truck driver Yasser Hassan planning to serve “urine popsicles” to non-Muslim Philadelphia area kids? It’s not clear, but Hussein was drunk driving his ice cream truck in the area and police found at least one bottle of frozen urine in the refrigerator that was used to store ice cream sold to children."

“We received information from a passing motorist of an ice cream truck that was all over the roadway on southbound Route 1 from Oxford Valley Road,” Middletown Township Lt. John Michniewicz said.

His Jack & Jill Truck was pulled over minutes later and investigators say the ice cream man, 46-year-old Yassir Hassan, was visibly drunk.

Upon further inspection, authorities found several wine boxes inside.

But even more disturbing was the discovery of at least three water bottles filled with urine and one of them was found inside the freezer unit used to store the ice cream.

Five Muslim soldiers arrested over Fort Jackson poison probe: report

"Five individuals were arrested amid a probe into food poisoning at Fort Jackson U.S. military base, Fox News reported on Thursday (EST).

Sources told Fox the five men were detained in December over allegations that they attempted to poison the food supply at the South Carolina base.

They were all part of the base's Arabic translation training program, referred to in the Army as "Lima 09".

"Each of them uses Arabic as his first language," one source told Fox News.

In an earlier report, before the arrests emerged, a military source told Fox News the suspects were Muslims.

CBN News reported that the five arrested men were Islamic and cited a source who said they may have been in contact with five Washington, DC Muslims, who were arrested in December after authorities uncovered their plans to travel to Pakistan to wage jihad against the U.S.

Sorry Mr. or Ms. Arjun Singh Sethi, but the days of placating the violent political ideology known as islam are over. The paper tigers in the obama administration were booted out a month ago.

I once heard Mr. Trump say that if the muslims want to be taken seriously, they themselves need to speak out and come against the terrorists and terrorist organizations. He’s absolutely right.

A seditious paper working for the enemy — needs to be prosecuted and either reformed or shut the h down. This abuse of “freedom of the press” is intolerable in this modern era if near- monopoly outlets with so many common and interlocking ownerships

Screw the muslims. Not one of them has stood up to publicly denounce the atrocities committed by their brethren.

As far as I'm concerned, they'll get more sympathy in hell than they'll ever get from me.

Why, are all American Muslims terrorist?

Yes in fact, they are...They all support Sharia Law which is anti-U.S. Constitution...Their muzlim law says they have to enslave us and if we refuse to become slaves they are to kill us...

The fact that they haven't done that yet is because they do not have the numbers, yet...But the Democrats are trying to help them out...Look at what they are doing in Europe...

The Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization.

Obama was running a terrorist organization.

One step at a time will eventually expose Hussein's treason.

yeah, and calling Hitler an international criminal was supposed to be a bad thing also.
The muslim brotherhood IS a terrorist organization and should be treated as such.
